Binary package hint: baobab

This is a weird one - when scanning a folder/drive with Disk Usage
Analyzer and subsequently right clicking on a folder to select "Open
Folder", Nautilus will open up to the directory for a moment, but then
back up one directory level in very specific cases.

And I do mean specific ;-)  Steps to reproduce:

> Close all open Nautilus windows
> Scan a drive
> Right click on a displayed directory that is exactly four levels down from 
> the *root* (that is the actual path, not the "tree" reflected in DUA) where 
> that directory name has a space in it. - i.e. 
> /home/username/directoryname/directoryname with space - and select the "Open 
> Folder" option.

Nautilus opens up in the correct directory briefly, but then backs up
one directory level and displays that directory instead.

If a Nautilus window is already open, or the directory name does not
have a space, it will work as expected. Using version 2.20.0.1

I noticed this when looking at my music folders which is mounted on a secondary 
drive mounted at:
/media/Secondary/Music/ ... right clicking /media/Secondary/Music/Led Zeppelin 
would reproduce the error, but /media/Secondary/Music/Aerosmith would not...

(This bug also occurs on deeper levels, i.e. right-clicking on
/media/Secondary/Music/Aerosmith/Classics Live! yields the bug, but
/media/Secondary/Music/Aerosmith/Pump does not)

Told ya it was weird :)
